REGUlaATOR FOR GAS-BURNERS SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters PatentNo. 676,173, dated June 11, 1901.

Application filed January 25, 1901. Serial No. 44,742. (No model.)

To all whom, it may concern:

Be it known that I, RICHARD BEEsE, a subject of the King of Saxony,residing at 13 Gluckstrasse, Dresden, German Empire,have invented a newand useful Regulator for Gas- Burners, of which thefollowing is aspecification,

The present invention consists of a new and useful regulator forincandescent gasburners, of which the following description forms theSpecification, and in which similar letters of reference referthroughout to similar parts.

Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of an incandescent gas-lightburner embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional view onthe line A B of Fig. 1. Fig; 3 is a lfii orizontal sectional view on theline C D of The new regulator 0 consists of a cylindrical body havingone end open and provided on the inner surface with a screwthreadadapted to engage a screw-thread formed on the outer sidev of agas-pillar a, which is provided with a' plurality of gaschannels f. Theupper portion of the regulator C is somewhat conically shaped and isprovided with concentric neck 0, in which a plate e is mounted. Aconical-shaped pin 1) is mounted in the center of the gas-pillar,withits upper end projecting through a centrallylocated circular opening inplate e aforesaid.

The regulator O carries on its lower edge a flange 01, passing throughopenings 1, formed in a cylindrical housing is, screwed onto the pillara aforesaid, and which housing is adapted to support at its upperportion the lower end of the Bunsen tube h, provided with airopenings 71therein Secured to the regulator O and extending outwardly and upwardlytherefrom is a cylindrical collar g, provided with openings thereinadapted to register with openings r aforesaid.

The operation of the invention is clearly obvious. By grasping theflange d the regulator can be easily and quickly revolved, and

owing to its screw-thread connection with the gas-pillar is therebyraised or lowered, in consequence of which the opening in plate 6through which the gas passes from channels f is opened or closed, owingto the said opening being more or less filled by the pin 7).Simultaneously therewith the cylindrical collarmoving with the regulatorcontrols the inflow of air through openings i by more or less closingthe same.

Having described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire toprotect by Letters Patent, is-

A new and improved regulator for incandescent gas-burners, having agas-pillar provided with channels therein, a cylindrical shapedregulator vertically adjustable mounted thereon, a neck in the upper endof said regulator, a plate provided with a central opening in said neck,a conical-shaped pin on said gas-pillar and entering said plateopening,a Bunsen tube also attached to said gas-pillar a cylindrical collar onsaid regulator adapted to move therewith and govern the Bunsen-tubeopenings and a flange on said regulator for easily operating the same.

RICHARD BEESE.
